Offices prone to graft will be specially monitored by ACC

Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) Chairman Iqbal Mahmood said on Wednesday that the offices of different departments which had been alleged to be prone to corruption will be specially monitored by them.

Complain of corruption is our main priority, we are not bothered whether a person is a cadre or non-cadre,” the ACC chief told reporters at a press briefing at his office this morning.

13 people were caught red-handed while giving and taking bribes in 2016 by the anti-graft watchdog, he said adding that in 2017 the number will rise as the ACC has boosted its monitoring in this regard.

“Whoever will take part in it, will face dire consequences,” Iqbal Mahmood warned.
